Hello.
I am trying to tune for Rondena, a genre of flamenco played with the following tuning: D-A-D-F#-B-E. In other words, Standard with the sixth lowered to D and the third lowered to F#.
Is there a way to do that?
I am using Finale 2014.5 on windows.

Thanks

If you begin from the Standard Guitar Tuning, do this:

Tune String 3 down - from 55 (= G) to 54 (= F♯).

Tune String 6 down - from 40 (= E) to 38 (= D)

I hope that this is clear?

If not, ask again.
